“The old answers came easily to mind. Money. Vengeance. Jordie’s voice in my head silenced forever. But a different reply roars to life inside him, loud, insistent, and unwelcome. You. Inej. You” JESUS FUCKING CHRIST MY GOD
KAZ, NINA, MATTHIAS AND KUWEI BARELY MADE IT OUT ALIVE FROM THE ICE COURT AND NEXT THING YOU KNOW THEY HEAR JESPER, WYLAN AND INEJ JUST BARRELING TO THEM IN A FUCKING FJERDAN TANK I LOVE THEM SO MUCH
I’m on episode 3 but my favourite bit of the show thus far is Kaz being all like ‘Jesper stop asking for a demolitions expert for every job.’ I was like OH MY GOD WESPER REALLY ARE SOULMATES
So I know some Scorpios and they are deep af. They are always in their feels but would never show their emotion lol. And the minute someone pisses them off, they are TERRIFYING and would literally kill someone so what I’m saying is I think Kaz is a Scorpio.
The obvious choice for Nina is Taurus which she could be tbf. But she gives me Gemini vibes. They are known for being two-faced. But some of the best people I know are Geminis I think because they are so easily adaptable and are able to talk and make friends with anyone.
Jesper is probably Leo. They’re described as ‘the ultimate showman.’ Very lovable and a bit vain lol. That’s Jesper.
I just feel like Inej is a Virgo. She’s so talented and meticulous. Like I’d trust her to do any job really well. They are literally described as having excellent spacial awareness and need to feel useful.
I’m a Pisces irl and they are dreamy and artsy and love romance. Wylan is pretty creative so could be Pisces but I don’t get those vibes from him. Matthias however. Big brooding romantic over there. I think he’s a Pisces. Either that or a Capricorn, bound by duty.
Wylan is either a cancer or an Aquarius I think. He has that sensitive but also brave and feels like an outcast but is also loved by everyone thing. I would do anything to be Wylan’s friend ngl.
The fact I’ll be off at uni when Shadow and Bone airs and I promised I’d watch it with my sister means I’m gonna have to WAIT to watch it!! But all my social medias are full of the grishaverse ahahaha I’m gonna go insane trying to avoid spoilers
This is completely factually accurate I assure you…
The Crows Favourite Musicals:
I don’t know why I’m doing this but it absolutely makes sense.
Nina: Something like Chicago or Heathers. Shows that make you feel like a bad b*tch who’s ready to murder.
Matthias: His favourite show is definitely Frozen but he would never admit it.
Inej: Okay so Inej would go for a really fun show on the surface that has really sinister undertones. Like Into the Woods! Also she sings the Sound of Music as she’s Wraithing because it reminds her of her parents.
Kaz: I don’t think Kaz is a musicals fan but I bet he’d secretly quite like Sweeney Todd. He’s also a secret romantic who likes death so West Side Story would be his fav.
Wylan: 100% Wylans favourite hobby is belting and crying to sad musical songs, no one can tell me otherwise. Les Mis and Waitress and Miss Saigon. And I bet he sounds good as well.
Jesper: He gives me major Beetlejuice vibes. Even his fashion sense is represented in this show. ‘The whole being dead thing’ is probably his favourite. And Avenue Q is another one he loves.
Just thought I’d make a quick little appreciation post for:
“I need to see Jakob Hertzoon.“
"Who?”
Kaz felt like he was about to climb out of his skin. He pointed through the window. “Jakob fucking Hertzoon. I want to talk to him.”
Because that for me was the most cathartic thing I’ve ever read ever. I could hear the frustration in my head. It’s also amplified by the fact it’s the only time (I think. Correct me if I’m wrong) that the F word is said in the books. And any swearing at all really. It’s beautiful. 10/10. Like the reading equivalent of a chesty scream or a sigh of relief.
Photoshoots of herself in pretty red dresses, taken using a timer because Matthias won’t take them for her. Sometimes pretends she’s a vlogger on stories.

Matthias Helvar
Uses Instagram like an old man. Only has 3 pictures, all of wolves. He uses those really old, awful Instagram filters.
@thewraith
Inej Ghafa
Just a few pictures of her stood on rooftops with sunsets in the background. All taken and posted by Nina because she thinks Inej looks beautiful in them <3 Inej doesn’t know how to delete them.
@user0692741
Kaz Brekker
Would never use his real name on the internet. Posts nothing. Follows no one. Uses the account to stalk everyone he need to. Wylan once followed him and Kaz threatened to slit his throat because of it.
@_wylan
Wylan Van Eck
Just follows his friends and posts pictures of his big house in the rain or videos of his music. Uses his private stories a LOT to rant and sends filtered selfies to the crows when he’s bored. Kaz has him blocked.
@faheyitsjesper
Jesper Fahey
Has the most followers. Thinks he’s an influencer and actually puts effort into his outfit photos. Very Pinterest-like. Mostly shots of him posing and some of Wylan looking cute when caught off guard.
Okay so before I knew Shadow and Bone Netflix was a real thing, this is the Kaz Brekker I had in my head whilst reading both books. And altho I love Freddy and I think he’ll do a great job, I stand by young David tennant. Look at him…
